The Government of Azerbaijan and United Nations launched the formulation of the joint strategic partnership framework for the next five years.
The Ministry of Economy and Industry hosted the launch of the joint consultation process, which brought together senior government officials, development partners, representatives from the private sector and civil society to identify the broad priority areas for the cooperation between the UN system and the Government. The prospective collaboration framework will be aligned with the national priorities that are articulated in ‘Azerbaijan: Vision 2020’ development concept, which builds on the country’s latest socio-economic achievements and provides a framework for its transition from a traditional economy to a knowledge-based, competitive and diversified economy.
The new strategy will support the agreed international goals and Post-2015 Development Agenda, a new framework for sustainable development, reaffirming the mutual commitment of the Government of Azerbaijan and United Nations to further deepen partnership and continue working in a concerted and effective manner. It will constitute a robust mechanism to foster coherence, relevance, effectiveness and efficiency within the UN system, and will give a significant attention to achieving results, with a focus on strengthening national Monitoring & Evaluation (M&E) capacity and deepening the integration of M&E into national development planning process.
On behalf of the Government of Azerbaijan, the Ministry of Economy and Industry will further co-lead the process of the preparation of the next partnership strategy until the end of August together with the United Nations and in consultation with all government and international partners. The strategic directions and expected results of the next partnership framework will be validated tentatively by end-September and endorsed by the Government by December 2014.

No, I will go alone.
I will come back when it's over.
Yes, of course I love you.
No, it will not be long.
Why may you not come with me? —
You are too much my lover.
You would put yourself
Between me and song.
[...]
You and I have nothing to do with music.
We may not make of music a filigree frame,
Within which you and I,
Tenderly glad we came,
Sit smiling, hand in hand.
Come now, be content.
I will come back to you, I swear I will;
And you will know me still.
I shall be only a little taller
Than when I went.

Bigger and simpler than ever before – those are among the promised virtues of the Horizon 2020 programme for research and innovation that the European Commission proposed formally last November.
Now comes the hard part: Winning acceptance for the plan from the Council and Parliament. This is a political process that will take most of the next two years; but already lines are being drawn in the sand.
The Science|Business Horizon 2020 Policy Bridge took place in Brussels on 27 March 2012.
- What are the key issues for debate in coming months?
- What are the preliminary soundings from the Member States and stakeholder groups?
- And when the shouting’s over in 2014, what can we hope for as the return on this investment?

French President Emmanuel Macron expressed hopes that Egypt, Sudan, and Ethiopia reach an agreement on the Grand Ethiopian Renaissance Dam (GERD) that meets their interests, in a phone call on Sunday with Egyptian President Abdel-Fattah El-Sisi.
Macron voiced aspiration that the agreement be reached as soon as possible, Egyptian Presidential Spokesman Bassam Rady said.
Egypt and Sudan have been in a dispute with Ethiopia over the filling and operating of the massive dam on the Blue Nile.
Egypt and Sudan require that a binding agreement among the three countries be reached before Ethiopia completes the second filling of the dam. Ethiopia, however, reiterated its plans to fill the dam in July with or without an agreement.
During the phone call with Macron, El-Sisi stressed the utmost level of importance Egypt attaches to the GERD issue within the framework of defending the country’s historic water rights, Rady said.
El-Sisi highlighted the need for the three concerned countries to reach a comprehensive, binding legal agreement on the filling and operation of the dam.
